For anyone interested I will post updates about her condition, and answer questions in this thread.
Currently she is having an upper GI endoscopy to try to locate the source of the bleeding, they were going to wait until she was stable enough to be sedated to do this but from what her dad said it sounds like they chose to do this because her condition is so critical and they need to stop the bleeding asap.
Addressing the rumors that she is suicidal and chose this, she is not. We are very open with each other, and she was very happy and showing no signs of suicidal thoughts before this began. I didn't know beforehand, but it has now been explained to me that with this type of liver failure chemicals build up in the brain that can impead a person's ability to feel how sick they are getting, and cause irritatibility. Her parents and I feel this is why she refused treatment for so long.
We have some good news, her white blood cell count is through the roof which means she has an infection. Her mom has the same types of autoimmune disorders as her, a few years ago she had an infection in her small intestines and it triggered the autoimmune flare up. They are treating her now for the infection and going to look in her intestines to find it and cut it out. If the same thing is happening to her, she should get start getting better immediately. Just in case it is the liver itself and not an infection causing a flare up she is at the top of the liver transplant list for the east coast. If treating the infection doesnt work she could get a transplant as soon as tomorrow.
She is still loosing a lot of blood. Her brain isn't getting enough oxygen and she is unconscious again. They are going to put her on a respirator. If she does have the surgery I may be able to go in with her dad to see her for 4 hours either before or after. They are watching her vitals to see how she responds to treatment to the infection.
this is a past user undercover, NOT a troll, so be hopeful when i say i will pray for alice every day, and just prayed for alice twice, and that alice is to smart for dying, because her intelligence is so useful, that maybe god will help her to live so she can help others
They found and stopped the bleeding, it was in her esophagus right above the opening to the stomach. They will decide either late tonight or early in the morning if she needs a transplant.
Right now it is looking like the infection is a coincidence, and not the cause of the flare up.
